Bible Games for a Group

Bible Baseball!

Need some fun and engaging Bible games for a group? Even non-baseball fans can participate in this fun Bible trivia game! You'll love this flexible game. Here we provide 30 questions so you can start right in, but you'll want to play this again and again with new questions of your own, focusing on the Bible facts you want to review.

Directions:

Choose an emcee and a scorekeeper. The emcee reads the questions. The scorekeeper keeps track of base runners, runs, and outs.

Divide the players into two teams.

Decide how many innings will be played.

5. The emcee reads a question to first player on Team 1. It will be either a single, double, triple or HR, based on difficulty.

6. If the player answers the question correctly, the scorekeeper puts an X
on the proper base. For instance, if the player answer a SINGLE
correctly, the scorekeeper draws an X on first base.

7. If the player answers incorrectly, he makes an out.

8. The next player comes to bat. If he answers correctly, the scorekeeper
advances the first base runner and adds another. Note: There are no
stolen bases. Runners only advance as far as the batter. For example,
suppose there's a runner on first base. The batter correctly answers a
DOUBLE. The runner on first advances to third base, and the batter goes
to second base.

9. Play continues until Team1 has 3 outs.

10. Team 2 goes to bat for the bottom of the first inning.

11. The team with the most runs when the game ends is the winner.
